I don't normaly join the threads about poor comentery from the BBC & SKY let alone start one.

The ridiculously poor effort we are hearing from Ray er. . (pause) French er. . and Michael (wrong name) Davies is absolutely unacceptable!

It's about time we got away from the notion that there must be a Northern twang about our commentators. What we are in desperate need of is some polished professionals to take the reigns and provide the game with the presentation it deserves.

Did you know Menzies is 35 yrs old ?

What amateur club did he play for?

We need to know.

Penalty to France

He'll tell us, don't you worry yourself.

Who is Talalalua ? Some new Bradford winger, Jonathan Davies seems to think.

I'm just waiting for someone to have been brought up on sweet potato.

Bradford coach Steve McCormack won't be happy about France's comeback.

We had Steve Deacon earlier, and it's been Thomas Bosch all the way.

And who is Thomas Bosh

Quote of the game from Ray French
"The big problem for Bradford could be that they're trailing by 8 points"

I wish Jon Champion was still working for the BBC rather than Setanta/ITV....a great loss to us.

Well the game came to life but the comentry team died a death

Did Michael Worrincy ever play for London Broncos??

Some guy asked on twitter if a player was called Bosh. He thought the commentators were saying it everytime a player passed the ball.

Two of the worst commentators ever, and then some 'horsey' wench that sounds like Lemmy, adding even more dire comment.....add to that, another 'Horsey' posh tart at Headingley..C'Mon BBC, sort it out!!

Nothing wrong with our Clare!!!

i cringe everytime davies and french take the mike...surely presenters/commentators shouldnt keep making basic errors especially about people's names!

dave woods and john kear showed them how to do it in the second game

yeah, leave our clare alone! shes great!

I thought they were alright too, at least they got the players names right and didn't just make them up.

" the french supporters waving their blue and gold flags here this afternoon"

"errrr sorry i mean yellow and gold"


god love the old boy

Please, please, please go away and watch moronball if all you can do is moan!

It was brilliant entertainment including the the cock ups and if you don't like it then you are really following the wrong sport.

I have watched today some 1st class entertainment on the beeb and yes there are are things that were "wrong" but overall the game won.

If this offends you then even moreso you are watching the wrong game.

RL is in the ENTERTAINMENT business and boy did it deliver today.

Unfortunately people have the RIGHT to moan when they are forking out £142 for their TV licence to watch the amateurish stuff apparently served up.

As professional journalists you would at least expect them to get the names of players correct.

If you or I did your job incorrectly, we would probably end up getting the sack. Our game is getting dragged down with their poor commentary.

Get the feeling Ray will be phased out gradually so enjoy it while it lasts eh. I used to like Davies but he should stick to Yawnion.

Dave Woods on the other hand is brilliant. Loved it when he described young James Graham as the 'Kindergarten Prop'
